The latter link is a series of photographs. Are you saying you need
somebody to describe them for you?


Please don't pursue this. I would feel terrible if my post inspired yet
another ****ing contest. Let it go, please.

Of course. But thanks for posting it - fascinating that a circle of
relatively small diameter, plus a few feet of wire, could save 75 feet
of vertical tower.

It seems that nobody has pointed out the third advantage of capacity
hats; that they reduce the Q of the antenna, and therefore broaden the
bandwidth.

Pictures of the tower and hat are at
http://www.oldradio.com/archives/warstories/640.htm
and scroll down most of the way.

Thanks, but I do not pursue URLS, my viewpoint being
that if there is something worthwhile to discuss, then
discuss it.

That's fine.
